Hey there. I was wondering if someone could help me figure out what the fuck is going on with my DirectX installation.
I recently got FFXIV for computer and I've been trying to run it with dx11, but anytime I do so I get an error message saying I have to update dx. I currently have dx12 installed and up to date, Windows 10 is also fully updated. I downloaded the redist provided in the Microsoft website to no avail. I also checked that both dll files for dx11 are in system32. I modified the registry file for the version number of dx to see if Windows Update or the web updater of dx would pick up and reinstall, but nothing happened. I don't want to be stuck in dx9, what can I do?

Do you own a graphics card that supports Dx11?
>>
Yes, an Nvidia GTX 960.
>>
Are you able to run any other game as DX11?
If you can its an isolated issue with the game. Try uninstalling the game and reinstalling it.
>>
Are there any light games that use dx11 that you could recommend? Kind of an annoying question, but I have shitty Internet connection so I can't afford downloading large games or re-downloading ffxiv for now.

you could try running a Dx11 benchmark test.

Thanks, I tried this and the benchmark didn't give me any issues, so I suppose it's off to Square Enix support with me.

If you cant find a solution try uninstalling the game then reinstalling it.
